  Worth visiting whilst in Shimla

  Very easy way to get to see the temple and great views over Shimla. Didn’t need to queue or wait long. Cabin was clean and everything felt safe and well managed.

  Seems forgotten about

  The ropeway/cable car is certainly not publicised. I researched beforehand how to get to the monkey temple but saw no sign of it once in Shimla. It is also off the beaten track and would have been hard to find on my own had the guide not known where it was. There is a steep walk to the lift station and ticket booth. A very disinterested person took my 550 rupees for adult return and left us to it. Once out of the lift there is a small cafe area to wait - I use the term cafe very, very loosely as not much for sale and just a guy behind a table. There is no clue as to when the next cable car is. You just seem to wait and then move up the stairway when other people do or the cafe guy gives a grunt. Same on the way back down, All very disorganised. There are quite good toilet facilities though and the cable ride is fast if a little expensive.

  Time Saving - Jakhu Ropeway

  I always Prefer to Trekking instead of short cuts but this time I was short of time hence thought of choosing the Ropeway option and thank God for technology it took very less time and I have visited Jakhu. I am not a big fan of these short cuts but if it would have not there I would have missed Jakhu Visit. Should try if you guys not do much if Trekking.b

  I would call this as one time visit place.

  This is a good place for spiritual tourists visiting Shimla. You can reach it via cab, trolley or on walk. By cab: You have to walk for 20min uphill from ridge Church to reach taxi stand at jhakhu point or you can directly take the cab from your hotel costing you approx Rs600. By cable car; This will cost you Rs 550 single way per person and takes around 2.5 hrs to complete the visit.( this includes 15-30min waiting both ways) This is little bit expensive though experience is good.

  Jakhu ropeway

  This is a ropeway for reaching to Jakhu temple hill. One has to walk for 20 mins from mall road elevator to reach to the ropeway. The view from the ropeway is beautiful and enjoyable.
